Ever wonder how some voices can captivate audiences? In this Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I am joined by Amy Chapman, a highly sought-after vocal therapist who has worked with stars like Shakira, Sia, and Anthony Kiedis.

We discuss how anyone can harness vocal techniques to sound more authoritative, likable, or persuasive depending on their objectives. We also explore the psychological connection between voice and confidence, why "down talk" commands more respect than "up talk," and how simple adjustments in your speaking patterns can dramatically change how people perceive you.

Amy Chapman is a board-certified speech-language pathologist who combines clinical expertise with artistic experience. Her career spans television, music, and corporate settings, where she helps clients optimize their voice health, expand their range, and enhance their performance. She's also the lead voice coach for "The Masked Singer" and works with CEOs and business leaders to improve their communication effectiveness.
